Hey Big Benze. I might have what your looking for. I have a 79 300SD that im thinking of parting out. Its been awhile since ive been out to visit it but I think the fenders were good. I'll check this weekend and get some picks too.[:)]

Is the 79 SD a 126 model? I thought the first year for the 126 model 300SD in the U.S. was 1981. If it is a 126 I may be interested in a fender too.[:)]

I couldnt use the fenders off of your 79 because they wouldnt fit. Your 79 is a w116 chassis. They started the w126 model in 81. Unless you have a european model 79 i believe they were like a year ahead, but I still believe it still wont fit. Im almost positive they wont fit.

[:I] I'm sorry i got the years mixed up. I thought the sheet metal was the same. I was just looking on ebay at the body styles. and there was a 380SEL with a blown motor. $400.00 was the final bid. I noticed it with 3 minutes left in bidding Item # 2405179856
